Bud3738-COT w/Brushless is totally open gearing so yes 64 pitch gears are allowed. I'm considering a couple different dates for the Turkey Shootout in Nov. I'm trying to not conflict as much as possible with other tracks race dates. I'll should have it nailed down anytime now. Whats your regular track?

it closed.....so Im a travelling man...I live in Mass...so its a 2 1/2 hr commute each way...

We have had 2 a year. Last year COT had the most draw however 13.5 is growing and the competition level is very good.

curious what guys are running for spec tires...compunds ect

The "majority" of the guys and gals that run COT are using 2 rear Gray (used to be Gold) a LF Green and a RF Silver. As always there are other setups.......LOL

Rollout on the 17.5 brushless COT is somewhere in the 4.25 range. Spurs are between 76 and 96.............

Hope that helps.............. BTW....................turns 1 and 2 tend to be a bit pushy and turns 3 and 4 tend to be a bit loose.............

Lenny

thanks....turns 1+2 pushy....turns 3+4 loose.....My car should perfect after a six pack
